12 cze 2007 · We set the Z-Factor parameter based on latitude (angular distance north or south of the equator). The Z-Factor parameter is in many Spatial Analyst and 3D Analyst tools; Hillshade and Slope are the two that I use most.

In ArcGIS you use the 'Z-factor' in the hillshade tool to do this as per the documentation here. You multiply the z conversion factor by the exageration factor. If your z-units are the same as your distance units then it will default to 1 and you can then treat it just as an exageration factor.
21 lut 2020 · Lastly the Z Factor parameter is used to scale the height of a surface in Z axis . Changing those parameters will alter the shadow of the terrain surface, therefore you can use those parameters to tweak the output of a hillshading in order to get a better hillshading visualization.
Z Factor: The z-factor is a scaling factor used to convert the elevation values for two purposes: Convert the elevation units (such as meters or feet) to the horizontal coordinate units of the dataset, which may be feet, meters, or degrees. Add vertical exaggeration for visual effect. The default value is 1. Pixel Size Power
23 mar 2023 · Switch to the Hillshade renderer; this is done in real-time to the terrain layer rather than creating new data. Change the Z-Factor to 1.5 . This amplifies the effect, making the shadows deeper and the highlights brighter.
3 wrz 2024 · Z Factor: The Z factor adjusts the vertical exaggeration. If your data’s elevation units differ from the map units, you may need to modify this value. Generally, a Z factor of 1 is suitable for most datasets. Output Layer: Choose the location and name for your hillshade output file.
25 wrz 2023 · ArcGIS Pro comes with a built-in feature that can be used to generate hillshades. If you have a DEM, DSM, or any other topography data, you can easily create a hillshade using ArcGIS Pro. In this article, we will learn how to display DEM data into a hillshade in ArcGIS Pro.
